Words like "mature" and "hardcore" are very ambigious these days. One one hand they can mean sophisticated, and dedicated. On the other hand they can mean, raunchy, and... well... raunchy.

I mean, what is a "Hardcore gamer"?Is it a gamer whose into pedeophilic beastiality... I mean, that's hardcore. Or are they gamers who are dedicated to the genre and spend a lot of time researching and thinking about what they play... that's also hardcore.

Interestingly, in contemporary culture, the pedeophilic beastiliaty types are more likely to be respected... which is why I'm into pedeophilic beastility, of course.

Maybe I'm the only one seeing this so maybe I'm just imagining it, but CT and CC seem to have themes of, eh, lost childhood, sort of? Or maybe misspent youth/misspent opportunities. Dunno. Anyone get what I'm saying?

Really? I don't see it. In fact, most games tend to have some of that theme in there, and CT/CC are two games that I don't really see that at all. The main characters all have loving parents, and grew up as fairly normal children. Similar goes for Lunar.

Now, every Final Fantasy game, on the other hand... there's your misplaced childhood (hehehe, just made Marillion reference... cool)

There aren't any. CT, the only parents that were involved in the plot were Taban, Queen Zeal, and the Guardia King and Queen.

I don't know. You could always make the case for it; there's enough evidence involving Kidd to make the claim that, due to her importance to the overall plot, having your past ripped out from under you has some sort of significance.
